That is one heck of a survivor package, factorystock!
If the vintage truck/camper market ever wakes up and smells the coffee, that price will seem CHEAP! There is simply no substitute for original materials and finishes that remain fresh after fifty plus years.

I agree. The quality built into these vehicles is hard to match, if not impossible. Most trucks of this vintage were not given a pampered life, it is a treat to see one of these unrestored survivors pretty much the same way it looked like back in '62. These time capsules that have been preserved are in a special unique class. There is a lot of original trucks still out there, but not a lot of "excellent condition" original trucks. After seeing the Lambrecht prices, I'll take a indoor 50 year old 21,000 mile over an outdoor 50 year old 4.5 mile anyday.

Re: most original 60-66 truck in existence?

I've been trying to buy this for about the last month. Justin (jwalk) told me about it making it to town. Guy didn't want to sell but finally came around.... Anyways, rust free and pretty straight 1963 shortwide. Pretty well all original I-6 and 3ott. Shows 62k on odometer. Appears correct looking at the pedals. Drove it home today and washed it. Still lots of cleaning to do. Here's a few pics.

Looks great! My favorite color too. Post some pics as you get into it, (maybe start a thread) as most of us love this kind of find. Congrats!
EDIT: I see your thread now and will be watching.
